Match Preview: Salisbury V Boreham Wood

Monday, 26 August 2024 05:55

Salisbury welcome highfliers Boreham Wood to the Ray Mac for a match today.

Wood sit at the top of the Vanarama National League South table after picking up 10 points from their first four matches, winning three and drawing one.

They continued their good start to the season with a three-nil demolition of Weymouth on Saturday (24th August). Junior Anthony Dixon scored two goals, bookmarking the second from former White Tom Whelan.

Boreham Wood were relegated last season from the Vanarama National League and have started the season in good form as they look to regain their place in the first step of non-league football.

Salisbury have had a solid start to the season, with two creditable draws against Hemel Hempstead and Truro City and a win over Slough Town—a side that has won its three other fixtures and now sits second.

Salisbury fell to their first defeat of the season away at Hampton & Richmond on Saturday (24th August) after an attempted clearance from 'keeper David Aziaya rebounded off Alex Wall into the back of the net.

A bumper crowd is expected at the Ray Mac, and tickets are available to buy online - https://www.salisburyfc.co.uk/tickets/
